This paper describes the finite element model for predicting the fundamental performance of embedded steel column base connections under monotonic and cyclic loading. Geometric and material nonlinearities were included in the proposed finite element model. Bauschinger and pinching effects were considered in the simulation of embedded column base connections under cyclic loading. The degradation of steel yield strength and accumulation of plastic damage can be well simulated. The accuracy of the finite element model is examined by comparing the predicted results with independent experimental dataset. It is demonstrated that the finite element model accurately predicts the behaviour and failure models of the embedded steel column base connections. The finite element model is extended to carry out evaluations and parametric studies. The investigated parameters include column embedded length, concrete strength, axial load and base plate thickness. Moreover, analytical models for predicting the initial stiffness and bending moment strength of the embedded column base connection were developed. The comparison between results from analytical models and those from experiments and finite element analysis proved the developed analytical model was accurate and conservative for design purposes.

Clad steel has good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties arising from the hot rolling of dissimilar metals, such as carbon steel and stainless steel. However both good corrosion resistance from the cladding plate material(stainless steel) and mechanical properties from the base plate material (carbon steel) are difficult to obtain because the different steels display opposite behaviors during the cladding process. In order to make clad steel for application in the hulls of ships, proper materials selection and heat-treatment conditions are necessary. In this study, mechanical properties of base plate materials with different chemical composition were evaluated according to heat condition of cladding plate material.

Base isolation bearings are known as an effective system to Protect bridges from the earthquake damage. There are many types of base isolation bearings in the market. Among them, steel hysteretic damper, made of mild steel and one of the oldest ones, has some good features. Since steel hysteretic damper is made of steel and has simple structure, it is cheeper and easier to maintain than other types. Despite the advantages, steel hysteretic damper with pin-type elements has no application in Korea. The steel hysteretic damper with pin-type elements are tested to examin the basic characteristics and to evaluate antiseismic performance. In this paper, the results of the test are presented.

기존의 주각부는 보강을 위하여 주각부의 가공에 많은 인력과 시간이 필요하게 되며 용접부가 과다하게 되어 베이스 플레이트에 변형이 발생하여 현장 설치시 앵커볼트와의 조립이 어려운 점등의 문제가 있다. 또한 상부구조의 응력분포와 변형 등을 평가하는 것에 있어서 중요한 의미를 가지는 주각의 고정도는 베이스플레이트의 강성부족, 앵커볼트의 느슨함, 베이스플레이트 하면(下面) 모르타르의 충진불량 등에 의해서 실제 해석상의 완전고정보다는 고정도가 저하된다. 본 연구는 기존의 주각구성 방법을 개선하기 위해 응력의 분포에 따라 베이스 플레이트의 두께조절이 가능한 주강(鑄鋼)을 사용하여 베이스플레이트의 강성을 크게하고, 주각부를 보다 간편하게 구성할 수 있는 방법을 도입하였다. 이러한 주각구성법은 철판을 절단하여 용접하는 기존의 형식을 탈피하여 주각부의 베이스플레이트를 응력의 분포에 맞춰 그 두께를 조절할 수 있는 주강제품으로 제작함으로써 주각부의 가공 및 용접량을 최대한 줄이고 베이스플레이트의 강성을 증대시키며, 응력의 흐름도 명확하게 할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 시공의 간편성, 품질의 향상을 도모하는 것에 그 목적이 있다. 이러한 주강제 주각부의 개발을 위하여, 기존 주각부와 주강제 주각부에 대한 실험체를 제작하여 반복가력 시험을 통하여 내력과 강성을 파악하고, 피로 시험을 통하여 장기적인 사용성을 확인하였다. 이상의 실험을 통해 주강제 주각부와 기존의 주각부의 구조적 성능을 비교하였을 때 내력과 강성면에서 동등한 성능을 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타났고, 사용하중의 반복가력 평가에서도 주강제 주각부가 안정적인 거동을 하는 것으로 평가되었다.

This study presents cyclic stress-strain and tensile test results at room temperature (RT) and 316℃ using cold-worked TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals. By comparing the cyclic hardening/softening behavior and failure cycle of cold-worked materials with those of irradiated austenitic stainless steels, the feasibility of simulating the irradiation effect on cyclic deformation and failure behaviors of TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals was investigated. It was found that, in the absence of strain-induced martensite trasformation, cold-working could properly simulate the change in cyclic hardening/softening behavior of TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals due to neutron irradiation. It was also recognized that cold-working could adequately simulate the reduction in failure cycles of TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals due to neutron irradition in the low-cycle fatigue region.

To evaluate the seismic performance of a base isolated building accurate analytical model should be selected. The analytical results such as reduced accelerations member forces and relative displacements of the superstructure of the base isolated building are only meaningful when the analytical model is close enough to the real structure. Real size one bay-two story steel frame and two kinds of seismic isolators(laminated elastomeric bearing and lead-rubber bearing) are designed. manufactured and constructed in the laboratory. Free vibration tests using fuse bars were conducted to evaluate the change of dynamic characteristics(period and damping) before and after base isolation of the steel frame. The experimental results of free vibration tests were also used as a bench mark for adjusting the selected analytical modeling to real base isolated steel frame.

JLF-1 steel (Fe-9Cr-2W-V-Ta), low activation ferritic steel, is one of the promising candidate materials fer fusion reactor applications. High temperature fatigue life and tensile strength of JLF-1 steel and its TIG welded joints were investigated at the room temperature and $400^{\circ}C$. The strength of base metal (JLF-1) is in between those of weld metal and the HAZ. When the test temperature was increased from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$, both strength and ductility decreased for base metal, weld metal and the HAZ. The longitudinal specimens of base metal showed similar strength and ductility compared with those of the transverse specimens at room temperature and $400^{\circ}C$. Little anisotropy was observed in the JLF-1 steel base metal in terms of rolling direction. Fatigue limit of weld metal which was obtained from cross-weld specimen is 495MPa. Thus, the weld metal showed the higher fatigue limit than those of base metal at both room temperature and $400^{\circ}C$. Little anisotropy of fatigue properties was observed for JLF-1 base metal in terms of rolling direction. When the test temperature was increased from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$, the fatigue limit of both base metal and weld metal decreased substantially.

콘크리트충전 강관구조는 구조성능이 우수하고 내화성능 등이 우수하여 점진적으로 현장 적용이 확대되고 있다. 그러나 지금까지 이러한 구조형식에 있어서는 구조부재의 저항능력에 대해 연구가 활발하게 진행되어 왔으나, 기둥의 주각부에 대한 연구가 활발하지 못하여 아직까지 주각부에 대한 응력의 흐름이나 이력 특성에 대해 명확히 규명되어 있지 못하며, 따라서 주각부에 대한 구조설계 시에는 순수 철골구조에서 적용하는 설계방법을 원용하여 설계되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 충전강관 기둥의 주각부에 있어서의 구조적 거동을 규명하기 위하여 실험을 수행하였다. 실험의 주된 변수로는 강관의 주각부 형식과 매립깊이를 변수로 하였으며, 비교를 위하여 순수강관 기둥에 대한 주각부의 실험도 병행하였다. 실험결과 순수강관과 충전강관의 주각부에 있어 구조적 거동의 차이점은 크게 나타나지 않고 있으나, 주각부의 형식에 따른 거동의 차이는 크게 나타나고 있다.

Timber is one of the few natural, renewable building materials and glulam is a type of engineering wood product. In the present work, timber-based braces are applied for retrofitting midrise Special Moment Resisting Frame (SMRF) using two types of timber base braces (Timber base glulam, and hybrid Timber-Steel-BRB) as alternatives for retrofitting by traditional steel bracings. The improving effects of adding the bracings to the SMRF on seismic characteristics of the frame are evaluated using load-bearing capacity, energy dissipation, and story drifts of the frame. For evaluating the retrofitting effects on the seismic performance of SMRF, a five-story SMRF is considered unretofitted and retrofitted with steel-hollow structural section (HSS) brace, Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) brace, and hybrid Timber-Steel BRB. Using OpenSees structural analyzer, the performance are investigated under pushover, cyclic, and incremental loading. Results showed that steel-HSS, timber base Glulam, and hybrid timber-steel BRB braces have more significant roles in energy dissipation, increasing stiffness, changing capacity curves, reducing inter-story drifts, and reducing the weight of the frames, compared by steel bracing. Results showed that Hybrid BRB counteract the negative post-yield stiffness, so their use is more beneficial on buildings where P-Delta effects are more critical. It is found that the repair costs of the buildings with hybrid BRB will be less due to lower residual drifts. As a result, timber steel-BRB has the best energy dissipation and seismic performance due to symmetrical and stable hysteresis curves of buckling restrained braces that can experience the same capacities in tension and compression.
